Please does anybody know of a way I can place a large icon on my today screen which would turn the ringtone off and the vibrator on. This you know could be very useful when I go into meetings. In this way I will not need to first tap the speaker icon with my stylus and then turn on the Vibrate radio button. I am asking for a large icon so that it can be operated with my fingers and I do not need to take out the stylus.
Thanks to all in advance for your help.
Kind Regards

I had the same problem and I solved it with the PocketZenPhone software which I use with (hacked) backlight button for changing profiles…

Has anyone used Powercheck before? I have a question regarding the "LCD off" function, which has the potential to be quite a handy tool:
How do I switch the screen back on again without using the power button? It allows you to assign a two-button press configuration to the action, but only gives the available options of "Button 1-5". Which button is which!?
Thanks,
Rich
all the
screen toggle programs i've used react to
all buttons and screen preasure to turn on the screen once more
Doesn't work with this one unfortunately.
Thanks anyway.
what about pressing contacts button ?
that sure works with the one i'm using now
Tried everything to no avail.
I'll probably go and look for another app. Any ideas? I want to be able display battery, storage and memory levels on the display screen as well.
pocket plus v2 does all of that i believe
but some people say it cause them problems on their xda2
others say it dont
Nice one, thanks Rudegar.
i managed to figure out that button 1 is the calender button (right side of earpiece), and button two is the contacts button (left side). all good. thanks again Rudegar.
Hi all
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to disable the volume slider button? As its in and out of my pocket its always changing the sound settings and its annoying, especially when it gets knocked down to silent and I miss an important call. I would just like to change the settings using the sound icon on screen and for it not be affected by the slider.
Thanks
try smartskey?
have you tried smartskey? One of the functions of this freeware is "Remap volume slider to page up/down" , this should be ok for your purpose, i think?

Hi
Yes, that works a treat. Thanks.
Anybody know know to turn off the LED on the hardware buttion like Start, OK, and IE.
Any kind of registry setting that will turn off that light on those button?
I'm curious why you would want to take away such a useful things away. Currently I use all the hardware button and wish there are more available. I use it for things such as changing SIP, rotate screen, start IGO, and control myp3 (such as volume up, volume down, next song,previous song,blank out screen, bring up the playlist,pause, unpause. This is while the device remains inside my belt pouch). The ok button is extremely useful in doing things such as hiding the phone application after use. Similarly if you're using program such as VITO fun contact, you could hide it after use without having to exit this extremely memory tiny application and able to instantly access your contact again anytime. Why would you want to disable all these useful features?

I suppose he just wants to turn off the light of the buttons to gain some more battery time, not to disable their use. Though I doubt you would gain so much by disabling the leds.
I noticed a gain in battery time when I disabled the blinking LEDs, but they blink all the time unlike the button LEDs which are only on sporadically. So I agree that disabling the button LEDs won't gain you anything.
I just think that the LED or the light is annoying. I didn't mean to disable the function.
The light around the joystick is fine. So any solution ??
key board backlight!!!

I don't think the keyboard has backlight. There is no light at all as I know....So this is not an option.
After a call, you get a status screen which stays on for approx 10sec. I find it very annoying and would like to change that.
thank you
Please help on this issue
Hi, anyone knows of a tweak to reduce the time the "phonecall" screen stays up ? it is very annoying when switching calls or to quickly do something after a call.
many thanks for the help
I reprogrammed the buttons on my Polaris to work as "Startmenu" (left) and "OK/Close" right.
This way I can quickly access the startmenu without having to stretch my thumb across the whole screen and I can quickly make the call windows dissapear by pressing "Red/End" and "OK/Close" which is the same key Alternatively you can double press "Red/End" to end up on the Today screen.
Unfortunately I think there is no such thing as a registry edit to tweak that setting.
ok, thanks a lot for the tip
Hi guys, I'm having troubles with one of the functions of the volume buttons on the side of the phone. When the phone is locked and someone rings me when I press either up or down I put the phone in silent - I want this thing off, it is pretty easy to accidently press it and miss a call - I did it a lot! Any help, please?

Take this one "AE Button Plus" : http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php

Thanks, mate! Is this program confirmed to work on touch2? I've read somewhere that it can mess all of my buttons if it is not designed for my device or something like that.
EDIT: Okay it works, but is there any app or registry that can allow me to turn off only the function "Mute" when someone is ringing? This things shuts down the buttons completely and I don't have a volume control when I'm in the windows

It works on my Touch2 perfectly !
Just a hint, I have only disabled the "volume-up" button. If you press "volume-down" first, then "volume-up" works as usual !

hello,
I have a very similar problem (using Touch2, T-Mobile, German version), although in may case the Volume Up button seems to dismiss the call (the caller is rerouted to my mailbox).
What I want is: simply deactivate the Volume Up button when the device is locked.
I read much about AE Buttons Plus, however I also read much about this app using up battery, and I don't want that. I really ONLY need this single feature, so I don't want to use a bloated app which cooks coffee, washes my cloths and so on... you know what I mean.
Anyone knows how I could do that? Is there a reg key or a tiny app just for this?
Or can anyone at least tell me how I can use AE Buttons Plus without the battery draining?
cheers,
Saiba
